Topic: Digital work environment
Digitalised processes facilitate workflows, while technology enables new forms of communication and collaboration: insights into the opportunities and possible conflicts arising from the partnership between humans and machines.
Robots
The definition of the term robot goes beyond a strictly technical understanding. Instead, robots are rather perceived as autonomous, socio-technical machines.
Machine learning
Machine learning means a computer programme learns from experience related to a certain class of tasks, and the execution related to those tasks improves with increasing experience.
Artificial intelligence
Artificial Intelligence describes the branch of computer science dealing with the development of computer algorithms for problems that we humans are still better at solving.
Digitalisation
Originally a technical term, digitalisation broadly describes the use of various digital technologies and the associated, diverse transformation processes.
Digital transformation
In the first approach, digital transformation refers to changes in society or social subsystems accompanying digitalisation.
Digital skills
Digital skills describes the knowledge and skills required for the use of information and communication technology as well as digital media.
Empowerment in tomorrow’s production: Rethinking mixed skill factories and collaborative robot systems (EmPReSs)
This project explored new concepts for human-robot collaboration in factories.
Business models of data-driven start-ups and their positioning along the value chain (DaGeWe)
The image of start-ups pushing traditional companies out of the market is only half the truth: A bidt-funded project has shown how established companies benefit from new players with data-driven business models .
Responsible Robotics – Tracing ethical and social aspects of AI-based transformations in healthcare work and knowledge environments (RR-AI)
The integration of embodied Artificial Intelligence (AI) into healthcare and society generally is expected to deliver major benefits over the coming decades.
Palliative care as a digital working world: Perspectives and design options for the digital transformation of communication and collaboration processes in multi-professional care in the last phase of life (PALLADiUM)
The project analysed and designed the digital working environment of palliative care. At the core of the project is the design of a digitally supported work system to improve multi-professional collaboration.
